Do you CASE cards on Pinterest? How do you search for a card? I did a search for masculine birthday cards Stampin' Up! and found this card. This card was so quick and easy, 3 colors, Bermuda Bay, Lemon Lime Twist and Black. For the inside of the card, I used the verse from Big on Birthdays and used the same two colors of ink, Bermuda Bay and Lemon Lime Twist.
My sister made a few cards using Emerald Envy and Bermuda Bay. These cards were super simple to make. Here are her two cards, one Portrait and one Landscape. The hardest part was adhering the Happy. We tried the Sizzix adhesive sheets that Stampin' Up! sells.....that didn't work out too well, lots of sticky on our fingers but not on the word "happy". Fine tip glue pen to the rescue! We put the glue on the back of the word "happy" in a lot of places and then pressed and held down the word for about 40 seconds and it stayed. A few minutes later, I took the adhesive eraser and erased the excess glue that was on the card.
The card took about 10 minutes - maybe less to make from cutting the cardstock, stamping, die cutting the Happy, die cutting the banner and stamping the birthday on the banner in white craft ink and heat setting it to the complete assembly. When you pull out cardstock to make a card, make 2 cards...since you are cutting the cardstock in two for the card base, you might as well use both pieces!
ENJOY!
